Question Squeaky/creaky left rear wheel

I have this issue for about a week now. It does this squeaky sound over every bump which I cross.

Also it does a "knocking" sound whenever left side of the car is loaded (driver + left rear passanger) while going through right corner.

Never had this problem before so what should I look at?

Hard to say. Get the car up and start prying on every bushing until you locate the noisy and/or loose one(s). If you've installed polyurethane bushings anywhere those can get noisy if not lubricated.

Have you changed out any of the suspensions part recently or is it all stock? How many miles on the car? As mentioned, safely lift the car and get under it and visually inspect everything. You could also get a dead blow hammer and start hitting stuff to see what starts to make noise. I'd also check those CV joints for any torn boots.

Make sure to grab the wheel at both 9/3 and 12/6 o'clock positions and shake the wheel. Up/down movement usually indicates a bad wheel bearing. Left/right usually indicates some other control arm issue.
